SpaceX's S-1 filing with the SEC discloses 18,712 bitcoin on its balance sheet at $1.45B fair value, purchased for just $661M. The company targets a $1.75T valuation in what could be the largest IPO in history.
SpaceX officially filed its S-1 registration statement with the SEC on May 20, confirming plans for a Nasdaq listing under ticker SPCX. The filing reveals the company holds 18,712 BTC at a fair value of $1.45 billion as of May 2026 — purchased for $661 million, representing a 120% unrealized gain.
The holding places SpaceX among the largest corporate bitcoin treasuries. For comparison, Tesla holds 11,509 BTC while Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) leads with 843,738 BTC.
SpaceX is targeting a $1.75 trillion valuation with an $80 billion raise, which would surpass Saudi Aramco's $29.4 billion debut as the largest IPO ever. The roadshow begins June 4 with listing expected June 12.
The filing also reveals Anthropic is contracted to pay SpaceX $1.25 billion per month for compute through 2029, highlighting the convergence of AI infrastructure and space-based data services. SpaceX generated $18.5 billion in revenue in 2025, with Starlink accounting for roughly 45%.
The company behind the world's biggest IPO also happens to be one of the largest corporate bitcoin holders — and nobody knew until now.
The real signal isn't just the $1.45B position — it's that SpaceX bought at an average cost of ~$35,300 per BTC and held through the entire cycle. This is not a treasury diversification story. This is conviction. When a company with $1.75T implied valuation holds 2.4% of its balance sheet in bitcoin, it normalizes BTC as a reserve asset at the highest levels of corporate finance. The IPO also creates a new avenue for indirect BTC exposure — every SPCX shareholder is effectively long bitcoin by proxy.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren sent a formal letter to OCC Comptroller Jonathan Gould arguing that nine national trust bank charters issued to crypto firms—including Coinbase, Circle, Ripple, Fidelity, and BitGo—violate the National Bank Act and pose 'serious risks' to the U.S. banking system.
Billionaire investor Bill Ackman announced Friday that Pershing Square has built a new position in Microsoft starting in February, arguing the company's massive AI investments aren't reflected in its slumping share price. The stake will be disclosed in regulatory filings later today.
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $630.4M in net outflows on May 13, the worst single day since January 29's $817.8M exit. BlackRock's IBIT led with $284.7M in redemptions. The outflows snapped a five-week inflow streak that had pulled in $3.8B, driven by back-to-back hot CPI (3.8%) and PPI (6%) prints that shifted Fed rate expectations.
